A giant exoplanet orbiting a very low-mass star challenges planet formation models
J. C. Morales, A. J. Mustill, I. Ribas +179
Statistical analyses from exoplanet surveys around low-mass stars indicate that super-Earth and Neptune-mass planets are more frequent than gas giants around such stars, in agreeme…
Constraining disk evolution prescriptions of planet population synthesis models with observed disk masses and accretion rates
C. F. Manara, C. Mordasini, L. Testi +4
While planets are commonly discovered around main-sequence stars, the processes leading to their formation are still far from being understood. Current planet population synthesis…
The Planetary Accretion Shock. II. Grid of Post-Shock Entropies and Radiative Shock Efficiencies for Non-Equilibrium Radiation Transport
Gabriel-Dominique Marleau, Christoph Mordasini, Rolf Kuiper
In the core-accretion formation scenario of gas giants, most of the gas accreting onto a planet is processed through an accretion shock. In this series of papers we study this shoc…
The Exoplanet Population Observation Simulator. II -- Population Synthesis in the Era of Kepler
Gijs D. Mulders, Christoph Mordasini, Ilaria Pascucci +3
The collection of planetary system properties derived from large surveys such as Kepler provides critical constraints on planet formation and evolution. These constraints can only…
Hot, rocky and warm, puffy super-Earths orbiting TOI-402 (HD 15337)
X. Dumusque, O. Turner, C. Dorn +30
TESS is revolutionising the search for planets orbiting bright and nearby stars. In sectors 3 and 4, TESS observed TOI-402 (TIC-120896927), a bright V=9.1 K1 dwarf also known as HD…
Exploring the formation by core accretion and the luminosity evolution of directly imaged planets: The case of HIP 65426 b
Gabriel-Dominique Marleau, Gavin A. L. Coleman, Adrien Leleu +1
A low-mass companion to the two-solar mass star HIP65426 has recently been detected by SPHERE at around 100 au from its host. Explaining the presence of super-Jovian planets at lar…
